Waving goodbye!

Did I hear you say hello?
I was just leaving
Now that the time is over
Am tired of living a lie
Seeing the truth is better
Than wasting away to die
Licking on dreams of a tomorrow
That never walks the door
Just fades into the light
Waving goodbye
One by one as they drift away
Out of sight

Did I hear you say love?
I’m sorry but you got to speak up
Now
I’m a little deaf you see
Listening to your worldly ways
Religion
Society
Philosophy
Twisted like you and yours
Like every soul that covets a life
And lives a lie
But I don’t blame you honey
It’s just me
Fading into the light
Waving goodbye

Did I hear anyone say open my eyes?
I’ve been staring at the sun
Blinded by the lies
I’m witnessing
A revolution of words
Walking the streets of reality
Watching glazed stares
Dreaming
Talking hypocrisy
No, I’m not trying
I’m not lying
I’m not crying
No, not anymore
I’ve just resigned to a fate of depravity
But I don’t blame you honey
It’s but me
Fading into the light
Waving goodbye

Just a little jaded

A bit lonesome
A bit worried
Happiness has been elusive
And perhaps short lived
Like the flower that blooms in the night
And fades by daylight
I’m yearning for a breath of freshness
Before I lie down to die

A bit tired
A bit wasted
Life has been anything but perfect
Leaving me insanely jaded
Like the fire that burns bright in the fading sunlight
Hoping to stay on through the night
I’m praying for a chance
Before I break down and cry
